It's a great way for first-time visitors to get their bearings, and if you're only here for a short stay then it's a handy way to squeeze in two things at once!

Sightseeing tour through the heart of London

After boarding the decorated double-decker bus near Victoria station, you'll settle down for a 90-minute ride through the heart of London.

Note: Live commentary is not included, but the friendly serving staff will happily point out some sights of interest along the way so you don't miss them.

Traditional afternoon tea menu

While you're admiring the sights you can choose from a selection of finger sandwiches, cakes and savoury snacks, while sipping on a glass of Prosecco or cup of tea.

Typical fillings for the sandwiches include smoked salmon with cream cheese and cucumber, mixed cheese with spring onion, and coronation chicken in a beetroot wrap. Vegetarian options include red pepper hummus with avocado, falafel with roast pepper salsa, and herbed cream cheese with cucumber.

Joanne A Hello, I was curious if there are any gluten free options? (reply)

↳Staff Hi Joanne. There are “vegan, vegetarian, halal and gluten-free options… but cannot guarantee that all foods have not been in contact with nut ingredients” They also need “at least 24 hours prior to the travel date to confirm your choice of menu, or you will be served the general menu”.
